Clinical Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a therapy which involves using the imagination where the therapist guides the client and this is achieved by giving the client suggestions that can promote changes in them. Hypnotherapy can give the client different perceptions and enable them to experience different emotions by changing the thought process, aiding the client to behave differently.
How does it work?
The way hypnosis works is by the conscious mind being side stepped using a state of trance and the new ideas and suggestions being placed directly into the unconscious mind. The General hypnotherapy register state hypnosis is an altered state of awareness and healing can be carried out by state of trance.
How does Clinical Hypnotherapy and stage hypnosis differ?
Stage hypnosis gives us the assumption that the client is not in control and that the hypnotist is in control. The general hypnotherapy register make us aware that participants in a stage act are an entirely voluntary process and so therefore their permission has already been given to the hypnotist and that the volunteers are unaware of exactly what they are letting themselves in for.
When hypnotherapy is carried out by a hypnotherapist the client is always in control of the session, hypnotic trance can not be used to control or compel someone to act differently to their moral code,or how they would find something shameful or embarrassing.
Will I be asleep and not remember anything?
It is not a sleeping therapy and therefore the client will always be aware of what is being said to them, again this is different to stage hypnosis where the hypnotist usually shows the client sleeping and using words such as 'sleep'.
How can hypnotherapy help me?
Hypnotherapy is effective with the following:-
stress
phobias
fear
panic attacks
lack of confidence
pain both physical and emotional
weight control
smoking cessation
nail biting
habits
addictions
What can I expect the first time I experience hypnotherapy?
A full consultation is carried out by our qualified clinical hypnotherapist before any treatment can begin. During the consultation the therapist takes notes.
With the information given during the consultation the therapist decides which technique to use for the therapy. This usually begins with a slow induction, relaxation and then the technique chosen by the hypnotherapist. At the end of the session the client is usually surprised as to how refreshed they feel and how they can remember what has been said but strangely how the time has gone by so quickly. The client is given aftercare advice.
The whole treatment is confidential and all aspects of Health and Safety rules and regulations are adhered to.
We look forward to your call and to helping you change your thought process and improving your life.

Reflexology - This treats 10 longitudinal zones throughout the body, five on each side running from the head to toe. Sensitivity is experienced when pressure is applied to a diseased organ, due to the mapping of the feet. Reflexology is a treatment for the mind, body and soul. It has been known to induce sleep, relieve stress related illnesses and create a sense of well-being.
Indian Head Massage - This is an ancient Indian technique carried out on the upper back, shoulders, neck and head with or without oils. Facial pressure points are also treated. Benefits include relief from stress and an enhanced feeling of well-being, while energy flows are re-balanced as blood supply is increased.
